ME-. H. B. KELLER TRANSFERRED.

The news yesterday gained circulation on
the streets that Mr.. h. B. Keller, division,
freight and passenger agent Of the Santa
Fe, had been transferred to Santa Ana, Cali
fornia. Calling at his office it was learned
that Mr.. Keller had been given position
with the management of the California
Central railroad and had accepted the same
some days ago with duties expiring here
Monday last. He left last night for the new
scene of warfare and will have headquarters
at Santa Ana. His family as is known has
been in California for some time.
The position of division, freight and pas
senger agent of the road at this point will for
the present by filled by Mr.. T. B. Fogg, who
for some time has been Mr. Keeler's as
sistant.
Mr.. Keller for number of years has
been in the city in the railroad business and
has made many friends. 1t would be difficult
to find man who has had so much to do
with the public and is SO well liked. His OPP
ponents always concede his rare ability as a
railroad official and the position he now &C
cepts would seem to chow that the Sauta Fe
company are well aware Of his striking
qualities.

MARRIED ON THE RAIL.

For some days Mr.. Oscar Vanderbilt,
general freight and passenger agent of the
Prescott & Arizona Central railway, has
been the guest Of Mr.. E. McKeon of the
Missouri Pacific Office. Last evening Mr..
Vanderbilt was married at the Union depot
to Mrs. Maggie E Brooks Of New Albany.
Indiana. Mrs. Brooks arrived on the
Frisco reaching the city at $50 p. m. She
was meet at the depot by Mr. Vanderbilt,
her brother Mr.. Joseph Norton Of this city,
the Rev. N. E. Harmon of the NJ. E. church
and Mr.. G. e. Jones and wife, The conduc-
tor in charge Of the train was apprised Of
the situation and held the train five minutes
during which time the ceremony was per-
formed in the sleeping car in the presence of
the friends of both the contracting parties.
1t had been intended that the
Rev. Harmon go to Halsteand
and perform the ceremony on
the road, but when the conductor so kindly
consented to hold the train, the program fol-
lowed out was adopted.
The groom is twenty eight years old; and
dressed in travelling suit. The bride is
twenty years old; and was dressedin.a travel
ing costume. She is very intelligent lady
and beautiful brunette.
For some years Mr.. Vanderbilt was city
ticket agent at Chicago for the Rock Island
company. He has been in the railroad bust
ness all his life and is quite pc pular gentle
man in railroad circles.
The bride, near year ago, was divorced
from her first husband. She is spoken of
very highly by quite number Of people in
this city who come from New Albany.

WHERE Is HI?

Nothing has as yet been discovered regard
ing the whereabouts Of Ernest Clark, the
young man whose clothes were found on the
bank of the Little river few days ago. Mr.
Knowles, who came to Wichita from the city
in which Clark lived. has written to his par
erts and friends there and they ali say in
reply that they know nothing of his where
abouts and have heard nothing from him for
some time. 1t was learned too that he was
formerly in the employ Of the Santa Fe a;
Wellington. A letter of inquiry there elected
the fac. that he had not been at that place
for several weeks. The feeling seems 20 be
growing that the young man was either
drowned or foully dealt with

CORN.

II. NJ. Mallernee, who has farm nine
miles east Of the city, which he preempted
fifteen years ago, called yesterday with spec
linens of corn grown upon that farm and an
adjoining farm belonging to Mrs. Gather.
The specimen ears averaged thirteen inches
in length and were heavy and well flied. We
have seldom, if ever, seen better corn. He
has about fifty acres Of the same kind, and
he not only has good corn but good farm,
well improved and happy and contented
family around him, while he himself is one
of the men in this world that don't want the
earth, but is satisfied with his farm, family
and surroundings and loves to talk about
them.

SCHEME FOR A STOCK COMPANY

The question of building an opera house
bobbed up yesterday in all soberness. The
matterswas variously discussed by the lead
ing men of the city. A part Of those al
ready interested don't feel willing to risk an
other building alone. As result it appears
quite probable that stock company will be
formed very soon and the work commenced
anew. A number of gentlemen have ex-
pressed willingness TO subscribe stock and
it seems quite probable that the scheme will
be winning one. The matter will be dis
cussed today and probably a meeting held
this evening for the purpose of organizing a
company. In talking with one gentleman
acquainted with opera house building he stat
ed that company should be formed with
capital stock of not less than $4,000. he
thought it.better to form a company with q
capital stock of slO0 200 and make a much
better building than the first was intended
to be.
A number of hands were employed yesser-
day In clearing away the debris from the
foundation. 1t is several feet thick and il
viii be some days before things can be clean,
ed up ready for working on another BUILDING.
